First Week-First Impressions

Just bought my LX last week. First week impressions of fit and finish are excellent. Everybody who has ridden in it are very surprised by the quality of the workmanship (they remember the early Hyundai days in the US). Looked at the Ford Escape, but it drove like a truck and had the interior of a truck. It lacked the standard safety features of the Tucson and was only so-so to drive. Not done a long trip yet, but commuting in it has been a real pleasure. I go the Alpine Mist (aka green) and it is a very sharp color.

Hyundai Tucson: The Most Bang for the $

This vehicle is a far better deal than any of its competition (e.g., Ford Escape; Honda CRV and Element; Toyota RAV4 and Mitsubishi Outlander) because of all of its standard safety and driveline features, many of which are not even offered as options by the competition. Try to build a Honda CRV or RAV4 that has all (or even most) of the standard features of the Tucson and you are looking at a purchase price of at least $5,000 more! I know: I priced the three of them at local dealerships. The second reason why I love this vehicle is the very high quality of its construction. All of the fitments are like those in a Lexus: they click and thunk with the right sounds, and look great, too.

We've only had it for 3 days, but so far we love it. We shopped around for about a month and the Tuscon was by far the best small SUV.

I have had my Tucson since Aug, and have put about 12,000 miles on it so far. Most of it on the Washington DC Beltway and 1 long trip. Overall very satisfied. Very responsive (for an SUV), never felt out of control, enjoyed the sound system. I really believe it has about the best balance of styling and features. NO real complaints. Mileage could be better, sure, but hey I knew what I was getting when I bought it so no complaints from me.
